Triple H's WWE Title run had no intrigue whatsoever. Winning the title at the Royal Rumble, it was clear where this was all headed: a main event showdown with the hopeful face of the company Roman Reigns.

Triple H holding the WWE Championship fulfilled a very specific role - getting Reigns a 'Mania main event victory - and it did so to the sounds of complete and utter apathy. A single bright spot came at 2016's first of two Roadblock PPVs, where in his buddy's absence Dean Ambrose put himself squarely in H's way and the two had a decent match with the crowd heavily invested in the possibility of something unexpected happening with the King of Kings' title run.

But alas, not a damn thing about this WWE Championship run was unexpected.
